About Us
We are T’sarE! (Pronounced: “Tuh-zar-ee”) – a startup entertainment company currently focused on creating our first project. We’re starting with a video game, planned to be released on Steam and then later Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch. This 3D platformer aims toward the nostalgic feeling of similar games from the early ‘90s and ‘00s. We have 3 playable characters, 25 different worlds to visit and explore, and an intricate story that outlines the struggles within the real world. The overall style is cartoony and fun as our target audience is for children between 5 and 12 years old. More information on this game will be provided upon acceptance to T’sarE! and the signing of our NDA and COC.
Our Team and Work Ethic
Our diverse team of over 60-70 people has expanded over the past year while diligently creating the elements needed to release a demo without any financial compensation. As such, we must consider all applicants as UNPAID INTERNS until further notice. After the game’s release this can turn into a paying career for those who want it, but for now our current goal is to create a working Demo to release to the public alongside crowdfunding. What we need now are even more hard working, game enthusiasts that want to be a part of something BIG!
